Combined Heterozygous Reduction in Pdx1 and Oc1 Gene Dosage Has a Broad Impact on the Transcriptional Network of Endocrine Pancreas Progenitors
(A–D) Hierarchical clustering of 2,331 differentially expressed genes in individual pancreata at E15.5 from Pdx1LacZ/+ (n = 4), Oc1+/− (n = 3), and Pdx1LacZ/+;OC1+/− mice (n = 5) compared to WT (n = 4) (A); Venn diagram depicting the number of altered genes in the Pdx1LacZ/+, Oc1+/−, and Pdx1LacZ/+;Oc1+/− (B); and endocrine system development and function gene ontology category in each genotype, according to negative log of p value from Fisher exact test. The numbers above each column represent the number of genes enriched in each category (C) and the heatmap of endocrine development and function genes (D). The up- or downregulated genes with false discovery rate less than 0.1 and fold change higher than 0.5 versus WT are highlighted with bold black borders. See also Tables S1 and S2.

Reduced Number and Altered Location of Neurog3-Expressing Endocrine Progenitors in DH Mice at E15.5
(A, B, E, and F) WT, Pdx1LacZ/+, Oc1+/−, and DH pancreata were immunolabeled for Neurog3 (A, E, and F) or Pax6 (in red) (B), Pdx1 (green), and E-cadherin (blue).
(C and D) Quantification for Neurog3 (C) and Pax6 (D). The white arrows: delaminated Neurog3+ progenitors and yellow arrowheads: Neurog3+ progenitors within developing trunk.
(A and B) 20× magnification. The scale bar represents 100 μm. (E and F) 40× magnification. The scale bar represents 100 μm. p value for all marked comparisons was < 0.05 by one-way ANOVA with Tukey correction (∗p = ). See also Figure S1.

Defective Differentiation of DH Hormone-Expressing Cells at E15.5
(A–D) WT, Pdx1LacZ/+, Oc1+/−, and DH pancreata were immunolabeled for insulin (A), glucagon (B), MafA (C), or MafB (D) in red, E-Cadherin (green), and DAPI (blue). The images are at 20× magnification. The scale bar represents 100 μm. p value for all marked comparisons was < 0.05 by one-way ANOVA with Tukey correction (∗p < 0.05). See also Figure S3.

Combined Pdx1 and Oc1 Heterozygosity Leads to Dramatic Alterations in Neonatal Islet Gene Expression
(A–C) WT, Pdx1LacZ/+, Oc1+/−, and Pdx1LacZ/+;Oc1+/− islets were analyzed for gene expression of hormones (A), endocrine-associated transcription factors (B), and secretory functional genes (C). p value for marked comparisons was < 0.05 by Kruskal-Wallace Test followed by two-tailed Student’s t test (∗, WT versus Pdx1LacZ/+;Oc1+/−; #, WT versus Pdx1LacZ/+; ˆ, WT versus Pdx1LacZ/+ versus Pdx1LacZ/+;Oc1+/−; $, Oc1+/− versus Pdx1LacZ/+;Oc1+/−; and ?, Pdx1LacZ/+ versus Oc1+/−) (not detected = ND).

Increased α- and β-Cell Proliferation at E18.5 in DH Pancreata
(A and B) Representative images of proliferating β cells (A; red: Glut2 and green: Ki67) and α cells (B; red: glucagon and green: Ki67) at E18.5. α-cell proliferation at E18.5. The arrows point to proliferating hormone+ cells.

Early Reductions in Pdx1 and Oc1 Lead to Persistent Alterations in Islet Gene Expression at Weaning
(A–C) WT, Pdx1LacZ/+, Oc1+/−, and DH islets were analyzed for gene expression of hormones (A), endocrine-associated transcription factors (B), and secretory functional genes (C) at P28. p value for marked comparisons were < 0.05 by Kruskal-Wallace Test followed by two-tailed Student’s t test (#, WT versus Pdx1LacZ/+; $, Oc1+/− versus Pdx1LacZ/+;Oc1+/−).
